Damn it....I feel the same way about dumb blond jokes!

Knock it off!


We blond have feeling too.


Oh and don't get me started on the shorty jokes....


Instead ask, "What Would Sodom Do?"

You just watched a video with a gay person in it! Surely you shall go blind now.

What is the problem with "That is so Gay"? They're not saying "That's so homosexual" or "That sucks cock like Dafoe".

Political Correctness is so gay.

Have any of you seen the response video comments on this ad? Very interesting.

BTW RCADE I got a little scared when I saw an e-mail from Drudge. I thought you were deleting the thread and giving me a sermon or something. It's just Friday and I was just messing around. Never figured this would wind up in the front page, but I guess the ad does have a point even if it could have been done better.

You are blond?!

I didn't think you were blond, you seem too smart for that.

J/K!

16 year old boy with a cheesy mustache, that's some funny shit right there.

Really? What ARE they saying, then?

Naturally blond and naturally short...and some pollack blood.

LOL....Just plain fodder for the jokesters!


And what is with the "seem"s shit.


Ya know I am very sensitive. .......

Sorry. One of the hazards of site moderation is that people only hear from me with bad news. I should create a fake name for those emails, so people like me and hate that bastard.

I think they were saying the statue was stupid or silly. They weren't saying "That homosexual is gay". Sausage puffers and carpet munchers are just too sensitive.

Well, Jerry Tarkanian is taken. How about Jim Harrick?

Well, Jerry Tarkanian is taken.

Once rcade figures out Jerrytarkanian is itsme, hillbillydeluxe, and sgs, that name will be available again.

Gay??? Doesn't that mean "happy," "cheerful?" If that queer woman is a lezzie or something why is she complaining to three guys calling something happy and cheerful?

To quote the great Homer Simpson: "It's not that I don't understand, honey; it's just that I don't care".


Michael Scott: Did you know that gay used to mean happy? When I was growing up it meant "lame". And now it means a man who makes love to other men. We're all homos. Homo sapiens.


Michael Scott: I need to know who else is gay. I don't want to offend anyone else.
Dwight Schrute: You could assume everyone is, and not say anything offensive.
Michael Scott: Yeah. I'm sure everyone would appreciate me treating them like they were gay.

that mustache IS pretty cheesy

Somebody needs to tell the woman to mind her own god damned business. She doesn't look like their mother to me. For all she knows they all might be gay.

After watching some of the other clips, I suspect this ad campaign from the gay crowd will backfire big time and the idioms will reach new heights with the in crowd.

We can just as easily ask the same of you.

Clearly, idiots have reached new heights in your crowd, so it only seems fair.

What about all the cod in the McDonald's Filet o Fish commercials? Are their pleas to fall on deaf ears? Why does no celebrity step forward in their defense? I mean, what if it was you sitting there in that bun? Oops, is that gay? Err, I mean Gay??

It seems the term "gay" has had a lot of different meanings over the years.

"gay has had various senses dealing with sexual conduct since the 17th century. A gay woman was a prostitute, a gay man a womanizer, a gay house a brothel."

dictionary.reference.com

So if someone is getting upset over what they "think" someone means then IMHO, they need to up their medication.


Just a quick reference to Wikipedia, this has been pointed out earlier but just to reinforce - The term gay was originally used, until well into the mid-20th century, primarily to refer to feelings of being "carefree," "happy," or "bright and showy"; BUT it had also come to acquire some connotations of "immorality" as early as 1637. They started to refer to themselves by Gay in the mid 50s. So, in a nutshell "gays" hijacked a word with connotations of immorality to describe themselves to begin with...

Now to flash slang knowledge - but nobody has brought this up.

The gay people seem to be in an uproar over "ghey". Yes, that is how people saying "That's so ghey" actually spell it. So it sounds like the word "gay" that homosexuals appropriated the use of... So what???? It is soft of used to mean the opposite of happy and positive (a meaning of gay...)

There's also fat spelled as P H A T... Meaning very cool - oh ya, that's another one of those opposites. But I suppose some people have problems with the use of phat. That's kind of lost favor though.

Don't know why Wanda's panties are in an uproar - she's a lesbian as in "Gay and Lesbian". Anyhow - Puuuuhlease get over yourselves! This ghey add campaign only makes it more appealing to use.

I am not bashing "Gays" - just the stupidity of this ad campaign and the hijacking of the word by gays in the first place... Political correctness is a flaming pile of poo. The biggest proponents are usually the biggest bigots IMHE.

speaking of gay....

Anyone who is interested in knowing, there is a gay musical artist (I guess you'd call him that), who has a terrific new cd. Well...it's his first cd on his own. He's performed with professional singing groups.

His name is Matt Alber. Anyone who can stand to hear touching songs from an openly gay men...enjoy. (and there's two men kissing in one of the videos...oh no!)

Here's a couple of links to videos from his cd.

I know I am dating my self in age, but i do remember when gay meant happy



Wanda is truely on of my favs - so inclusive!

Be Well.

Flintstones. Meet the Flintstones.
They're the modern stone age family.
From the town of Bedrock,
They're a page right out of history.

Let's ride with the family down the street.
Through the courtesy of Fred's two feet.

When you're with the Flintstones
you'll have a yabba dabba doo time.
A dabba doo time.
You'll have a gay old time.
